Linux Dash is a web-based dashboard that provides a quick overview of system performance statistics. In this tutorial, we will go through the steps required to install Linux Dash on Elementary OS.
Open up your terminal and navigate to the directory where you wish to install Linux Dash. Run the following command to clone the Linux Dash repository:
git clone https://github.com/afaqurk/linux-dash.git
This will create a new directory named linux-dash in your current location.
Before we can start the Linux Dash server, we need to install some dependencies that are required by the application. To do so, run the following command:
sudo apt install php7.4-cli php7.4-curl php7.4-gd php7.4-json
This will install the required dependencies.
To start the Linux Dash server, navigate to the linux-dash directory and run the following command:
php -S 0.0.0.0:8000 #-S allows to start PHP built-in web server here.
This will start the Linux Dash server on port 8000.
Open up your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:8000 to access the Linux Dash dashboard.
You should now see the Linux Dash dashboard, which provides information on CPU usage, memory usage, disk usage, and network statistics.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Linux Dash on Elementary OS. By following these steps, you can easily monitor your system's performance using the Linux Dash dashboard.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
